--Previous Message-- : Thank you Maridje, wonderful hair arrangement : with the pins! : I really like the way CP Mary tries to : create a diferent look each year, giving the : fact that she always wears her most : impressive parure at this important gala : event. Of course I preferred Queen Ingrid's : beautiful larger version of the tiara (as : has been stated so many times here, the : smaller size and lowered center part of the : new tiara was not an improvement) but I : admire how the Princess as made this parure : so versatile and apropriate for a younger : wearer. : : So far she has worn 6 versions of the ruby : earrings (the complete earrings, only the : clusters, clusters with grey pearl, : yellowish pearl and white pearl, cluster : with a single ruby drop)and 3 versions of : the necklace (complete necklace, only the : central cluster motifs, previous one with a : ruby pendant). The large brooch was worn : also with and without the pendant, in the : corsage, in the waist line and now on a : velvet band as a choker. And 3 hair pins : (not sure if they can be worn as brooches). : Really CP Mary has turned this parure into : one of the most versatile ones around for : royal ladies to wear! Fabulous! : : : : --Previous Message-- : : : : : : :
